He expected it because Phaeacians were famous for their hospitality and willingness to help everyone. They would refuse help to no one so he expected them to help him.

Odysseus expected the Phaecians to be generous and wanted to accept their offerings because the Phaecians were known as models of hospitality. Moreover, Odysseus believed that telling them an entertaining story would make the Phaecians help him.

In <em>Odyssey</em>, the Phaecians are a group of people who inhabit the island of Scheria, which is ruled by Alcinous and Arete. They are skilled with different activities in the ocean. For that reason, they assure Odysseus returns safely to Ithaca. However, they are punished by Poseidon for being hospitable and generous with Odysseus later in the story.

Answer:

The speaker commands the instruments to play loudly. He imagines the sound bursting through a "solemn church", scattering the congregation, into the school where the scholar is studying. He imagines the sound disturbing a bride and groom. He commands the instruments to play so loudly that it changes that they disrupt everyone's life.

The author intended to invoke the enviroment of war without speaking about soldiers. He uses onomatopeia and enphasis in certain words so that the speaker, whilst reading the poem, could also imagine the drums playing.

That which is "solemn", "quiet", and "peaceful" is meant to be disturbed, to be changed by the loud instruments playing.
